GEAR LEVER
The gear lever (A) is located on the dashboard and it is of the floating
“multi-stable position” type, i.e.: it features three stable positions and
three unstable ones.
The three stable positions correspond to neutral (N), reverse (R) and
central position set between the unstable positions UP (+) and DOWN
(–) (see figure).
Unstable positions (i.e.: positions abandoned as soon as the gear lever is
released), are the upshifting position UP (+), the downshifting position
DOWN (–) and the automatic mode position (A/M).
To return to manual mode, set the gear lever back to A/M.
With the car stationary and the key removed, it is possible to shift the
lever with/without the brake pedal pressed. The system will perform no
actuation when shifting the lever and the gear engaged will be the one
stored before removing the ignition key.
IMPORTANT With the engine off and the car stationary, any error
between lever position and gear engaged is indicated by warning light (è)
coming on for a few seconds on the instrument panel together with the
message on the reconfigurable multifunction display.

does not show the gear engaged, turn the ignition key to STOP and wait
for the display to turn off, then repeat system switch on. If the fault
